I think my keyboard needs new batteries! It seems to be skipping characters occasionally, and I don't remember when I last changed them!

You change your characters?

Might be sticking keys.

The ABS will use linkage keys to connect current data with future answers by yourself so over time it will create a centralised data bank about each person. Its like the Australia Card which the public rejected because it was too invasive. At some point I think we are entitled to say, "That's none of your business."

Maybe we should all list "Land Rover" in this one!

I've been Jedi for the last 2 censuses (censii?)

This time I am going for the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, except the census form is 2 characters short to fit all that in....

I don't believe there is any evidence that the Romans ever held a census where everyone had to return to their original village. Seems to be a 'convenient' story to put Jesus in the right place for Old Testament predictions.

There was a Roman census in 6CE.

Just a little bit longer than that... 1473 B.C.E., Numbers 1:2, "take a census of the whole assembly" :angel:

I think the census mob are in trouble with me. I haven't received a letter with my on line log in number. If you try to ring the 1300 number for help the recording basically says it is overloaded and to ring back. Managed to get an email to them and I have a receipt number but they haven't emailed back. Try fining me for non compliance!!!:no2::lol2:
